Midwest Siding, Inc.

- Overall, experiences with Midwest Siding are mixed: several customers praise workmanship on siding (including James Hardie) and painting, fast service, and professional crews, while others report significant safety, communication, and quality concerns.

- Positive examples: fast and detail-oriented siding installations; high-quality painting results; effective coordination with other contractors when issues are identified (e.g., window roof fixes); some projects (roofs, partial window replacements, two-story homes) described as professional and “exceeding expectations.”

- Delays and communication issues: multiple reviews note long wait times (e.g., two months for siding and windows) with little or no updates until the customer followed up; some inquiries received only auto-replies.

- On-site safety and workmanship concerns: reports of an underage worker operating machinery, a worker cutting electrical wires causing a power outage (requiring an electrician), and other installation issues such as drywall nails protruding and caulking being incomplete or not removed from old caulk.

- Window problems: several reviews cite defects with Hayfield windows (holes under the lock when open) and customers reporting insufficient resolutions; one reviewer noted being told the hole is “the way the windows are made,” with patches applied afterward.

- Scope and pricing issues: at least one reviewer received a quote for full-house siding replacement and painting when only damage repair was requested, indicating possible miscommunication about scope; another reviewer praised quotes that included painting as part of the project.

- Post-project follow-up: some customers felt apologies from the owner were delayed; there were instances of goodwill gestures (e.g., extra cups or gift cards) but inconsistent communication about issues.

- Practical takeaways for potential customers: request a detailed, written scope of work and timeline; confirm what is included (caulk removal, old caulk cleanup, safety measures, and cleanup); verify window specifications and warranty, especially if Hayfield windows are used; ask for progress updates and a single point of contact; discuss contingency plans for delays and on-site safety.
